PLENARY SESSION I: Meeting the challenge Recent years have seen the largest economic recession in Europe in the EU’s history against a backdrop of demographic change. What has been the impact on local services and how should politicians, planners and managers address the questions these changes pose? As economic growth slowly returns to Europe, how can we afford a ‘social’ Europe? |
